Aarau/Zurich, Switzerland - TypeWay makes use of iPad's multi-touch capabilities, and adapts the virtual keyboard to individual hands and typing habits to ease 10-finger typing. Version 1.2 offers a quasi-full keyboard with many special signs via the Alt/Opt-key and new options. "Spring Discount": $ 1.99 from now to May 12.

Version 1.2 has a quasi-full keyboard with almost all usual special signs via the Alt/Opt-key (accents, several quotation marks, (C) etc.), what makes typing on the iPad comfortable. It uses the multi-touch-screen optimal by adapting to different hand sizes, and shifting positions. Typing indeed is possible just by small finger movements, when an individual key-configuration is used. You can evolve and create your individual key-configuration; the "Freeze" or "Save" functions allow to maintain it. TypeWay 1.2 has more connectivity options for text export as "Send to iTunes" on your computer, and "Open In...", and refined UI-functions.

As "Spring Discount" the price is $ 1.99 (instead of $ 4.99) from now to May 12.

This utility app fits to iPad's technology of sensing 10 touches simultaneously. Conventional keyboards require a discipline to tap in linear rows, but hands are individual in size, shape, and typing habits, and may shift in position. TypeWay uses information about touch events to refresh the configuration of keys continuously (patents and patents pending). Typing is in a new way simple by this "immaterial" keyboard.

Benefits :
* Supports 10-finger typing with automatic adaptation of the key configuration to hands and typing habits
* Encourages learning touch typing skills
* Advantages for blind typing
* Quasi-full keyboard with many special signs via the Alt/Opt-key
* Default keyboard layout straight or slanted
* By "Restore" a favorite key configuration is used
* "Freeze" fixes the actual key configuration. "Unfreeze" activates the adaptation.
* Storage and basic management of text files
* Font size settings
* The "Share" function uses Mail, Twitter, AirPrint, "Send to iTunes" on your computer, or "Open In..." (e.g. "Pages" or "Dropbox").
* Integrated are iOS 5 features, as cut, copy & paste, spell checker, suggestions for word correction.

System Requirements:
* iPad
* iOS 5.0 or later
* 0.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
TypeWay 1.2 is priced at $1.99 (USD) or local equivalent from now to May 12 as discount price. It is available exclusively from the iTunes App Store in the Utilities category.

MailWing 4.2 - An organizer and archiver for Apple's Mail - Published on 04/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie Mac developer Luther Fuller today announces MailWing 4.2, an update to his popular organizer and archiver for Apple's Mail for OS X Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion. MailWing organizes Mail by moving messages from linked mailboxes to matching Finder folders located with a project, account, interest group or client folder. Version 4.2 runs on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion, with updates to the archive sparse bundle, and the Move To Archive Tool has been replaced with a Move To Annals Tool.

Birmingham, Alabama - Announcing the release of MailWing version 4.2. MailWing is an organizer and archiver for Apple's Mail and requires OS X Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.

Linked Mailboxes - MailWing enables you to link any On My Mac mailbox to a Finder folder located anywhere you wish, such as with a project, an account, an interest group or a client folder. Route messages to these mailboxes manually or automatically, using Mail's Rules. Messages are copied from a linked mailbox into its linked folder and Mail's copy is moved to the Trash mailbox where it will later be archived. Unread messages are labeled gray and the linked folder is opened showing messages ready-to-read. MailWing also preserves the threading of mailboxes Organized by Thread by creating Subject folders.

Mail-Safe Archive - (available only with purchase) Outdated messages in the Trash mailbox are moved into the Mail-Safe Archive folder then deleted from Mail, ensuring that an archived copy exists of every message sent or received. These messages are organized within Day-numbered folders, within Month-numbered folders, within Year-numbered folders. You no longer have to agonize over deleting old mail. Simply archive everything to Mail-Safe where it's out of sight. If you ever need to see an old message, it's easily found with a Spotlight search which works just like Mail's Smart Mailboxes. If you have a requirement to maintain an e-mail archive, Mail-Safe may meet your needs.

MailWing Menu - Installs in the Dock with the click of a button. Gives you instant access to MailWing, the Help document, the Mail-Safe Archive, MailWing's Tools and all of your linked folders organized exactly as in Mail. May also be installed in DragThing and alternate dock or menu bar launchers.

All messages are saved as individual .emlx files (without file conversion) which retain attachments and are simply Mail documents which are opened by Mail when double-clicked or may also be read via Quick Look. These documents may be Replied, Redirected, Forwarded, Bounced and Printed by Mail just like any other messages. (But they cannot be Junked, Deleted or Flagged by Mail.)

Copies of messages made by MailWing are presented in the Finder in a List View window where:
* The file name is the message's Subject;
* The modification date is the Date Sent; and
* The comment is the To: address (for sent mail) or From: address (for received mail). This allows you to easily identify messages in a List View Finder window.

Pricing and Availability:
MailWing is fully functional, except the Mail-Safe Archive, for a period of 30 days following installation, after which continued use requires purchase of an activation key ($9.95 USD).

Players must avoid birds, compensate for winds, and master the delicate up/down and left/right control system to rescue minute animated hikers, stranded on small platforms in mid-air. Helo (pronounced Hee' low) is tilt controlled on iOS and keyboard controlled on OS X.

With blocky, aliased graphics and animation, Helo takes the player back to the early years of video games, when designers struggled to construct games that would run with limited memory and processing power. The comparative crudeness of those games was tolerated by players, because there was nothing better and because the gameplay was challenging and entertaining. Helo is an homage to those early efforts that established quality of gameplay as the most important factor in video games.

The red helicopter that is controlled by the player is small, maximizing the scale of the airspace. There are only three views of the helo: left, right, and front. Its rotor is a simple 2-blade design, which rotates when airborne. Though the iOS and OS X versions of the game are identical, gameplay is somewhat different owing to the difference in the control systems.

In the iOS version, players control the helo via tilt control. Both up/down and left/right controls are active simultaneously. The game has no sensitivity control, and players will need time to get a feeling for the interface. It should be very simple to control the little helicopter, but it is much more challenging than it appears. Winds are always a danger, as are birds, and collisions with the small platforms and the trees growing on them.

Feature Highlights:
* Retro arcade game featuring a flying helicopter
* Save stranded hikers by picking them up
* Accelerometer-based, tilt control in iOS version
* Keyboard control in OS X version
* Watch out for winds, birds, and obstacles

In the OS X version, players control the helo via the keyboard, using the up/down and left/right arrows. Again, players will need to gradually master the controls to be successful. For example, hovering in place requires periodic taps on the up arrow to maintain equilibrium.

"Helo is the kind of game I was playing when I started as a developer," commented Johnny Gentry. "I invite everyone who enjoys retro arcade games to try Helo on my website."

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.5 or later
* 2.5 MB

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
* Requires iOS 3.0 or later
* 2.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Helo 1.0 for iOS is $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. Helo 1.0 for OS X is $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the Mac App Store in the Games category. A free version of the game can be played on the developer's website.

7.: Zzed: space story from Nevosoft Now for iPhone/iPad on the App Store

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Zzed: space story from Nevosoft Now for iPhone/iPad on the App Store - Published on 04/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Nevosoft today is pleased to announce the release of Zzed: space story, a unique arcade game that's great mix between a space shooter and a marble popper. In Zzed: space story, you will play as the main character who is a young humanoid named Zzed. You will have to clear away space meteorites by collecting them in groups of three or more, causing them to self-destruct. Game play requires good reactions, quick thinking, and self-control in difficult situations.

St. Petersburg, Russian Federation - Nevosoft, a top Russian casual game developer, announced the release of their game Zzed: space story. It's a unique arcade game that's great mix between a space shooter and a marble popper.

The main character is a young humanoid named Zzed. He had to graduate a course in cosmic waste management and now he is trying to get a job at the Zopa-Zola Corporation. Why? The answer is very simple. He is in love and ready to do anything to marry the girl of his dreams, a pretty woman named Zzuma. And of course a good job with a good paycheck will go a long way in impressing her. The story, such as it is, is played out in fun, comic-panel cut scenes between levels.

Collecting trash is the main part of the game and, of course, it's extremely fun to do. You should launch a colored orb from Zzed's ship into the floating mass of colored meteorites. Make three or more of them of the same color collide and they'll disappear. Make enough disappear and you win the level. You can also move your ship by touching and dragging it. You can rotate a full 360 degrees (actually around and around in circles if you want) and travel to different parts of the level. You only need to use one finger to play, as you can just tap the screen to shoot in the direction of your touch. The only other interaction is moving your ship, which is also controlled by a single finger. You'll also be dodging meteorites flying at you, trying not to lose all your lives. Launching your orbs causes the trash to scatter and move in realistic ways, thus allowing you to make huge combos. This also adds an element of puzzle-solving strategy, particularly in more advanced levels.

Features:
* mix between a space shooter and a marble popper
* 60 levels in 10 stages
* colourful graphics
* pulsating synthesiser soundtrack
* lots of interesting bonuses

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 3.1 or later
* 16.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Zzed: space story 1.1 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category.

11.: iPad developers in China resort to grey-market imports for testing

iPad developers in China resort to grey-market imports for testing - Published on 04/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Leading developer, ReignDesign has revealed the difficulty they found obtaining a new iPad for testing "Flockwork", their upcoming puzzle game. Apple announced the new iPad with Retina display on March 7th, but the new device is not yet available in China. And developers in China have had to go to extreme lengths to import devices to use for testing. Until Apple's China product launch dates coincide with those of other major regions, most iPad developers in China are left with few options.

Shanghai, China - ReignDesign, a leading iPad developer in China, has revealed the difficulty they found obtaining a new iPad for testing their upcoming puzzle game, "Flockwork." Apple announced the new iPad with Retina display on March 7th, but the new device is not yet available in China. That meant developers in China have had to go to extreme lengths to import devices to use for testing.

Stephen Ceresia from ReignDesign explained: "Unlike other regions, Apple doesn't launch its products in China right away, so we are often forced to purchase devices from other regions. Unfortunately, with every major product launch it's becoming increasingly difficult to get our hands on new iOS devices when they're released. With the first iPad, we picked one up from one of the city's many grey-market electronics stores almost immediately after launch. With the iPad 2 we couldn't find anything local, so we went to Hong Kong," Ceresia says.

However, recent changes to Apple Retail Store policy in Hong Kong requiring pre-orders and proof-of-residency have made things more difficult. With the recent release of the new iPad, the company was forced to purchase the device through an independent US courier shortly after its launch.

Until Apple's China product launch dates coincide with those of other major regions, most iPad developers in China are left with few options: submit an untested app, wait weeks or even months for an official product release, or find a grey-market product to test with.

"The new iPad's retina display is a significant update, and we didn't want to submit Flockwork without first testing it on an actual device. It was a hassle to get our hands on one, but we think it was definitely worth it to fully support the new device," Ceresia explains. The company's game Flockwork is scheduled for a worldwide release on April 19th on the App Store.

15.: Who's Your Caddy Unveils Revolutionary New Golf Mobile Application

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Fri Apr 13, 2012 5:15 am (PDT)

Who's Your Caddy Unveils Revolutionary New Golf Mobile Application - Published on 04/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The cutting edge golf mobile application, Who's Your Caddy 1.0 is about to change the way golfers, golf courses, and advertisers view mobile apps. Caddy Tips give golfers details of each hole on the course through videos from the club professional. Who's Your Caddy serves up "Gimmes" to its golfers - free gifts from businesses in the golfer's neighborhood, such as a gift certificate to a restaurant. A win-win-win for all parties involved: golfers, golf courses, and advertisers.

Milford, Connecticut - Who's Your Caddy, a free, cutting edge golf mobile application, is about to change the way golfers, golf courses, and advertisers view mobile apps. Not just another golf app, this mobile app is the first of its kind. A win-win-win for all parties involved: golfers, golf courses, and advertisers.

Who's Your Caddy, created by parent company Red Mat Media, will be available in early April on iTunes, and by May 1 for Androids. Three key features set this product apart from other golf apps. First, Who's Your Caddy is a Free mobile app for both the golfer and the golf courses.

"Other golf apps can charge the course to be on the app. With Who's Your Caddy, not only does the course not pay a cent for the app, it can also make revenue from it with our revenue share program. We create partnerships with golf courses and users, no other golf app can say that," said Timothy Lyon, CEO of the parent company of Who's Your Caddy, Red Mat Media.

Secondly, Who's Your Caddy serves up "Gimmes" to its golfers. Gimmes are free gifts from businesses in the golfer's neighborhood, such as a gift certificate to a restaurant. Golfers will be alerted of their free Gimme via a text while they are using their WYC unit during golf.

"The Gimmes really separate Who's Your Caddy from our competition," said President Suzanne Cahill-Manning. "It is a win-win-win program. Our advertisers gain exposure and direct access to potential new customers. The golf courses offer a benefit to their players, and receive a portion of advertising revenues. And of course, the golfers win with the Gimmes while using the very best golf app on the market. And it is all free."

Third, Caddy Tips give golfers details of each hole on the course through videos from the club professional. He will offer tips on how to play each hole during a short video, just as if a caddy were standing by the player's side pointing out the strategies of the hole. Who's Your Caddy also provides all the cutting-edge benefits expected from golf mobile apps, including GPS yardage capabilities - all at No Charge.

Maybe the most important aspect of Who's Your Caddy for the courses that sign on is the unique advertising program. Via WYC sales reps, local businesses will buy advertising on the mobile app for a small annual fee. A portion of that fee goes into a bonus pool, which is divided among the participating courses based on usage at each facility. There is no expense to the golf courses, yet they'll benefit greatly. They will engage their customers in a revolutionary new mobile golf application unique to their course, drive traffic to their courses, develop co-op relationships with neighborhood businesses, and make extra revenue.

About Who's Your Caddy:
Golf's most complete mobile app is Free to the courses and the players. Golfers earn Gimmes - free gifts from neighborhood businesses - by simply using Who's Your Caddy app. Participating courses earn revenue through Who's Your Caddy's unique advertising program, and all they have to do is make their players aware of the app. Caddy-like advice is provided for each hole via a short video in which the golf professional explains how to play the hole. And all the other cutting edge tools expected from golf mobile apps are offered on the Who's Your Caddy app.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* 18.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:

MW3D-Solutions releases Cheetah3D 6.0 - Now with Bullet physics - Published on 04/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Independent software developer MW3D-Solutions is proud to announce Cheetah3D 6.0, a major update to his very popular 3D modeling solution for Mac OS X. Developed from the ground up utilizing the latest Cocoa technologies, Cheetah3D is a lean, fast, and elegant 3D modeling, rendering, and animation package with an easy learning curve. Version 6.0 adds support for rigid body and soft body dynamics using the Bullet physics engine, Isosurfaces, improved iBooks Author compatibility, and much more.

Tapfheim, Germany - MW3D-Solutions today is proud to announce Cheetah3D 6.0, a major update to its popular, professional level 3D modeling solution for Mac OS X. Developed from the ground up utilizing the latest Cocoa technologies, Cheetah3D is a lean, fast, and elegant 3D modeling, rendering, and animation package with an easy learning curve.

Perfect for graphic designers, architects and casual users alike, Cheetah3D provides the most useful features needed to get the job done, and organizes them within a beautifully elegant user-interface that is powerful, intuitive and quick to work with. It offers many powerful tools, like subdivision surface modelling, joint based character animation system, UV unwrapping, texture painting, rigid and soft body dynamics, PDF import, global illumination renderer, and much more. The possibility to extend Cheetah3D with JavaScripts and support for many common file formats, like FBX, 3DS or Collada, rounds out its feature set.

The biggest change in v6.0 is, without a doubt, the smooth integration of the industry-proven Bullet physics engine for the simulation of rigid-body and soft-body dynamics. No matter if you want to spill a bowl of marbles onto the floor or to simulate a waving flag in the wind: Cheetah3D 6.0 can handle it with just a few mouse clicks.

In addition to the new dynamics features, Cheetah3D 6.0 adds support for Isosurfaces (Metaballs), the keying of mesh vertices and spline control points, improved iBooks Author compatibility, an upgraded FBX SDK, support for 16-bit textures and much, much more.

"With its seamless Mac OS X integration, Cheetah3D has been written from the ground up using Cocoa. Its not just a simple port of a Windows or Linux modeller which ends up looking, feeling and behaving like a disappointingly un-Mac-like piece of software. With Cheetah3D, you will feel right at home using it without having to learn a completely new user interface. It packs a terrific punch for it's tiny price. In fact, the program provides a level of productivity that you will be hard-pressed to equal in software ten times the cost."

oneSafe Photos - Secure Vault for Secret Pictures and Private Videos - Published on 04/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

To help users protect important photos and videos, Lunabee Pte Ltd today announces oneSafe Photos, its latest app for iPhone and iPad, with advanced security features such as AES 256, the highest level of encryption available. The new app safeguards personal pictures and private videos on a user's device inside a locked vault. oneSafe Photos also provides state-of-the-art security options such as autolock, self-destruction, a decoy safe, and break-in reports.

Singapore - To help users protect important photos and videos, Lunabee Pte Ltd today announces oneSafe Photos, its latest app for iPhone and iPad, with advanced security features such as AES 256, the highest level of encryption available. The new app safeguards personal pictures and private videos on a user's device inside a locked vault. oneSafe Photos also provides state-of-the-art security options such as autolock, self-destruction, a decoy safe, and break-in reports.

From the makers of the popular security apps oneSafe and Private Browser, oneSafe Photos features hardware encryption on top of the AES 256 bit encryption, the same as the US government uses for "Top Secret" documents. Users can lock the photo vault inside the app with the touch of a button so private information stays that way.

"oneSafe Photos is the only app you need to protect your important photos and videos from prying eyes, and we are very excited by this launch," said Olivier Berni, the managing director of Lunabee Pte Ltd., creators of the app. "We worked hard to deliver both a very secure and safe app as well as a great-looking and easy to use product."

Setting up oneSafe Photos is quick: users only need to choose a 4-digit PIN, password, or visual pattern. They can lock the vault with the touch of a button or automatically when they leave the app.

To add photos to the app's secret vault, users can take new pictures, choose from their library, or import from USB. A full screen mode makes viewing pictures more enjoyable.

To help users keep their photos organized, oneSafe Photos comes pre-loaded with common categories such as family, holidays, and video - just drop photos in to secure them. Users can add or edit categories to meet their needs, and include a description or change the visual theme.

The Smart Views feature and built-in search allow people to quickly find their photos. Important pictures can be marked as "favorites" so they can be found easily.

oneSafe Photos takes the security of users' photos very seriously. To be absolutely sure the photos are safe, the app features an option for double protection. This "vault within a vault" is designed to protect highly valuable information and is only accessible after entering a second password.

Features of the oneSafe Photos app include:
* Safeguard photos and videos - Protect important files with industry-leading AES 256 bit encryption
* Easy to use - Adding photos is simple and the vault can be locked with the touch of a button
* Double protection - A highly secure area protected by a second password keeps highly sensitive information safe
* Be organized - Group photos into custom folders, and search or find favorites easily
* Advanced features - State-of-the-art protection includes autolock, self-destruction, a decoy safe, break-in reports, and more

Device requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 18 MB

Pricing and availability:
oneSafe Photos is currently available for sale worldwide through the App Store in the Photo & Video category for $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies). Review copies are available upon request.

22.: Fire Drill - Three Alarm Fun in New iPhone Game

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Fri Apr 13, 2012 6:45 am (PDT)

Fire Drill - Three Alarm Fun in New iPhone Game - Published on 04/13/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The creators of Tongue Flied and Chopstick Flick, Mezmo Media, today announces the launch of its latest family-friendly game for iPhone and iPad, Fire Drill, where players must act quickly to put out dangerous fires in fantastical buildings like castles, igloos, and spaceships. In 25 fast-paced levels, Fire Drill challenges players to extinguish the blazes. With each level, the houses get bigger and the fires get more difficult, making putting out the blazes a real challenge.

Nashville, Tennessee - The creators of Tongue Flied and Chopstick Flick, Mezmo Media, today announces the launch of its latest family-friendly game for iPhone and iPad, Fire Drill, where players must act quickly to put out dangerous fires in fantastical buildings like castles, igloos, and spaceships.

In 25 fast-paced levels, Fire Drill challenges players to extinguish the blazes. With each level, the houses get bigger and the fires get more difficult. Players aim their fire hoses at each window to put out the fires. With more windows, smoke and fire is everywhere, making putting out the blaze a real challenge.

"It is your job to save the day," said Christopher Rioux, Founder of Mezmo Media. "There is always danger and excitement around the corner in Fire Drill."

Learning to play Fire Drill is quick: players tap the flames to extinguish them. It will take a careful eye to spot the fires and perfect aim to reach the top floor windows. Miss too many of the flames and things go up in smoke.

Each level is a fun new challenge for players and, the better a firefighter they are, the more levels they can unlock. Find houses, mansions, and fantastical buildings like a castle and giant shoe. If players are too slow, however, everything will go up in smoke.

In addition to spraying the fire hose, players need to be careful not to let the water pressure dip too low. Press the pump button to get more water and keep fighting the fire. Also, players should keep watch for the fire alarms that pop up randomly on the screen - squirt them for bonus points.

The game was designed for children (and kids of all ages) and arrives after the release of Mezmo Media's two other games, Tongue Flied and Chopstick Flick, also available in the iTunes App Store for the iPhone and iPad.

"Like all Mezmo Media games, Fire Drill is easy to learn and hard to put down," Christopher Rioux said. "If you think you have what it takes to be a top firefighter - or just want to have some fun - you will want to play Fire Drill."

Features of the Fire Drill game include:
* Three alarm fires: Fight the flames by aiming the fire hose in the windows - just tap to spray the water
* 25 exciting levels: There are many fires to put out around town, adding to the game's excitement
* Unlock exotic levels: Castles, igloos, even a giant shoe are burning and need help
* Fast-paced fun: Players will need quick reflexes to fight the fires, pump the water pressure, and ring the alarm bells

Device requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* 48.8 MB

Pricing and availability:
Fire Drill 1.00 is currently available for sale worldwide through the App Store in the Games category for $0.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies). Review copies are available upon request.

Corporate and group training offers a customized curriculum, either in-house or on-site, for professionals eager to learn a new skill or to build on existing ones. The facility's focus on small workshops, highly skilled and certified faculty, and a results-oriented curriculum, have quickly won it the reputation as New York's premier post-production teaching facility.
